When you obstruct the work of the world

The work of the world is conversation. To the extent you are in front of a group of people you are obstructing their work. There is a certain hubris in the notion that one person’s new ideas—products of intellectual activity—are so valuable to have a hundred people sit and listen! Are ideas more valuable than getting work done? Is intellectual labor more noble than relational or creative or physical? These are not separable.
